For all the places I've traveled with my bike, I really don't know if a fixie with skinny tires would be my first choice for that kind of terrain. I did some pretty crazy off-roading (or I suppose it was technically on-road, but you wouldn't have been able to tell if you didn't already know) with my Montague Paratrooper. It was up for the job, and I can't imagine riding in the developing world without suspension and knobby tires.
